Happiness


Outside my house we have a beautiful crab apple tree that blooms bursts of pink every spring. And every year, I told myself that I would take a picture of this tree because it honestly leaves me breathless. But every year I always forgot because the days would become busier and the task would always slip my mind.

These blossoms only last for a week or so and then they are gone and every year I missed them.

I finally took a picture of these beautiful blooms and I was happy :)

These days that I've been living, I have been so blessed with so many bouts of happiness.
God has been showering me with immeasurable moments that I honestly don't deserve and I could not be enjoying life more...

I'm not even scared of all of this slipping away from me because I've kept a piece of it & I'm living life to its fullest.
